The CLIVE GREAVES FAMILY TROPHY

69. Grow your own early potatoes
We're excited to announce that due to the overwhelming success of last year's class, it's happening again this year, featuring an early potato variety!
It is hoped that this family class will spark your children's passion for growing their own crops and experience the joys of gardening first-hand! Please ensure they are actively involved in planting and caring for their very own potatoes, watching them sprout and flourish, ahead of the great unveiling at the show! The heaviest crop wins!
To enter, please fill in your details below. We will contact you when the seed potatoes are ready for collection.
